The Daughters of Moab by Kim Westwood: Harper Collins
The Daughters of Moab by Kim Westwood: Harper Collins
New Fantasty novel by Kim Westwood.Assassin. Protector. Blood sister.
In a world torn asunder by geological and climatic disasters, a small corner of Australia is having a chaotic rebirth ...
Eustace Crane II is leader of the over-zealous Followers of Nathaniel, who have taken a ruined abbey. Begrudging custodians of this ravaged landscape, they are harvesting the genetically-modified blood of the captive Daughters of Moab -- because the Daughters, unlike the Nathans, have an unnatural abundance of good health.
Assumpta Viali, a loner in this remade world, likes her solitude. But her boss, the crotchety Eustace, has other plans for her unique and deadly skills. He needs her to track and return an escaped captive, Easter.
The hunter and the hunted forge an uneasy alliance, and are joined by Angus O’Connell, a Nathan with questionable motives. While Assumpta returns to the place of her childhood where her community was destroyed long ago, Easter realises for the first time the perils of her lineage ... and Angus discovers that hope springs eternal in the most unlikely of places.
Driven by loss, and the search for home in an unpredictable new world, each of them must ultimately decide who to trust, and where they belong.
